In Kansas City, Missouri, a computer helps fire fighters. The computer, which works very fast, has information about every one of the 350,000 street addresses in the city. Within two or three seconds after a call is received, the computer provides necessary information for the fire fighters. The information is then sent to them by the radio from the computer center in City Hall. The exact place of the burning and its size, type and anything else are clear to them.
The Kansas City computer system also has a medical record of each of the city’s 900 fire fighters. This kind of information is especially useful when a fire fighter is injured. With the information, doctors at the hospital can treat the injured fire fighters more quickly and easily.
The fire fighters themselves greatly appreciate (感激) the computer help. They know about possible danger ahead of them and can prepare for them. Many times the computer information helps to save lives and property (财产). Sometimes the lives are those of fire fighters themselves.
Mike Horan, a fire fighter captain, says, "I feel as if the computer is watching over (守护) me to help me if I get hurt."
From ’Mike Horan’s words, we can know that the fire fighters themselves ______.
选项
A、are being taken care of by the computers
B、have been saved by the computers many times
C、always get hurt in saving people’s lives
D、are trying hard to stop a fire burning
答案
A
解析
文章的最后提到消防队员也很感激计算机的帮助,Mike Horan说“I feel as if the computer is watching over me to help me if I get hurt”其中的“watch over”就相当于“take care of”,所以,选项A的内容与文章相符,是正确答案。文中提到“Sometimes the lives are those of fire fighters themselves.”由此可见选项B中的“many times”与文章不符。选项C和D在文章中根本没有提到。
